In preparation to release of Alternate Workflows in the future, we have added the following features:

• Non-breakable Workflow: Allow in-progress workflow instances to be isolated from the FAB workflow changes. New adjustments on workflow process flow will not affect older instances in production. In the same manner, new instances will automatically use the latest workflow definition until this feature is improved on future release/patch where users will have the ability to choose which WF definition version to use per specific instance.

• Traceability: All changes in workflow definitions are trackable via new table /IQX/FAB_WF.

For more details on this, check out Alternate Workflow
